RUN to victory !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

RUN ... literally !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

haha


Well, all pun aside ... all you can really say is that Boston has set the stage to take this thing ! All signs point to HEAVY Run D for the Saints gameplan ... but, that would leave the pass open all day long ? Pure genius ! Big round of applause to the 1 man show !

I dont care about the Broken Bowl. See you guys all next season Im taking some time off.

Edit: GO Saint. Remember they like to take advantage of the broken running game. Hint why it is called the "Broken Bowl" this year.


silly general... we like to take advantage of the way the game works too, as does DDL i think. It is not a "Broken Bowl". This is not a NFL sim. Running teams have been dominate throughout the history of football. Nebraska won a title with only passing a small percentage the whole season. Running is a part of football and until recent times, it has been the biggest part of football. It is just not "sexy" anymore and doesn't sell tickets IRL.

edit: not to mention the pushovers held them to an average run game and their pass game was better than their run game.

The saints look forward to trying to stop a good offense.


I was typing out something really long but fuck it Im to lazy and am going to watch "You dont mess with the Zohan".

Its the "Broken Bowl" plan and simple.

Have fun Peace.


It's broken because DDL isn't in it, right?

I was going to disagree with him, but I just can't. It's plain and simple.

Sad that there are so many crybabies out East.


Congrats to the Western Conference for having class and saying "good game" after a loss instead of crying like little babies for....heck, its going to go on forever isn't it...


HEY, CTAP, you were the #1 seed in the West and got that seed without boosting until the end. Why didn't you cry in the forums after you lost??.....Oh wait, right, a classy and respectful owner and team.

please don't think that a couple of crybabies represent the East as a whole. Most of us know how to take a loss like a man.

+1

Thanks for the well wishes guys. It will be a fun game.

I was trying to think... has any team even made it to the Bort Bowl in consecutive seasons?

And yes Ctap, I know you will be gunning for us. I fully expect things to get back to normal next season and take a pounding from you guys again. I am pretty sure we aren't the best team in the West, we were just the best team at the right times.

The Bort Bowl is broken? Are you serious? DDL got beat by a heavy rushing attack. They ran for 5.7 per carry against them. We held them to 3.1 per carry. The Pushovers supposedly were "exploiting" the pump fake, yet we were beaten today. I didn't want to go on and on about it when I still had a game to plan for but both are part of the game, both are open to all to use, and both can be stopped/contained. I knew the Bullets used pump fake probably as much as anyone to get their WRs open (hence the extreme irony in them complaining about it), so I did certain things in certain situations to limit it. Sometimes it meant more pressure to take away the QBs time to throw, sometimes it meant more safeties over the top to cover for the CBs when they got faked out, sometimes it meant double covering certain WRs to decrease the chance of both defenders being faked out. I think the results of our defensive gameplan against Boston's rushing attack speak for themselves. We went into our games against Washington and Boston with a very good idea of what they would try to use against us, they pretty much did what we expected, and our defensive gameplan in each case worked well. Ultimately our last game was decided by turnovers/turnover on downs and us being slightly outplayed. Never once did I go into the game thinking "They're using something unstoppable - we're screwed". Instead I said this is what they will probably do - what can we do to stop it, and that's what we did. So the Bort Bowl is definitely not broken. You just got beat. We just got beat. The Aces just got beat. As my favorite Ace Mr. Ventura says, "In every contest there must be...a loser." That is the reality of life. The sooner you accept it the happier you will be. But I guess you tell yourself whatever you have to to keep morale up.
